DLottMusic Testimonials

Event DJ/Music Director/Curator:

BYkids has a very special heart and soul, bringing the stories of kids around the world to American audiences. For most of our events, we would call David Lott and he would generously create the perfect global vibe through music. He is the guy to call when you want professionalism, intelligence and authenticity. He always brings complimentary music to the room.

David is a magician with music and always creates the perfect atmosphere.” – Holly Carter, Founder and Executive Director, BYKids

Original Scoring, Online Video Content, & Sound Design

The biggest challenge I used to have when producing video pieces was finding the right piece of original music or sound design. Not any more! Now I just call Dave. He is consultative, I tell him about the piece, send him a rough cut and BAM! my inbox is exploding with fresh ideas. Multiple variations and multiple ideas! Dave composes and delivers (ahead of schedule!) an incredible variety of original compositions that will be sure to elevate your next production.

Musical Direction, Sound production, Accompaniment & Theatrical Work

David Lott and I have been friends for years now and were music collaborators for most of that time before we (New York) lost him to Colorado (grr!) David was the lead guitarist in my band for several years, during which time he basically arranged all my originals, provided invaluable feedback on new tunes, music-directed rehearsals and of course brought the songs to life in performance with his thoughtful, dexterous and fiery guitar playing. He is basically the reason that Time Out NY said I had “an ultra-tight band that packs a potent dose of downtown heat”. David also was music director (and cast!!) in the first musical I ever wrote/composed and I don’t know what I would have done without his technical skill and his ability to think both musically and theatrically about how the songs should work to tell the story. And because he is also, you know, a smart, professional, and nice person, he is the first person I will call the next time I’m in that situation. Vote Dave Lott!

Wedding:

I would like to give David my highest recommendation. David was so wonderful to work with as a musician; he went out of his way to understand our vision for our wedding music and was great with suggestions to help guide a path. He offered to learn any requested music, in any style, so that we would have exactly what we wanted. As well as offering many different set-ups: bass, keys, violin, guitar, vocals, etc.

He went above and beyond to put together an optional playlist for our ceremony and cocktail hour, in which we were able to pick and choose songs. Our venue had sound restrictions and only allowed acoustic music to be played live; David and the guys did a beautiful job. We had so many compliments from our guests! I only wish I had more time during the “craziness” of the day to just sit and listen to them as they played! Kuddos.
